It gave Germany an extremely harsh punishment which led it to ruins. Hitler took this chance to run for chancellor promising to fix Germany's problems. Mussolini did almost the same thing to take control of Italy.

∙ 13y agoThe Treaty of Versailles severely restricted Germany to the point of causing a severe depression and failed economy of Germany, the starvation and homelessness of the German people. The people blamed that treaty for their problems. They did not have a strong government which was capable of solving the nationwide problems. The Germans did not elect the Nazis to power. They were victims of the Nazis taking over when their President Hindenburg died and the Chancellor Adolf Hitler took over. He abolished the existing constitution and ignored the Versailles Treaty. This is how Germany was ushered into a Dictatorship government.
In Italy and Spain it was more of a matter of voters choosing the wrong person for their leadership and being dragged into bad dictatorships.

How did treaty of Versailles lead to world war 1?
WW1 was the cause. The Treaty of Versailles was the peace settlement signed between Germany and the Allies after WW1. The Treaty was a direct cause of WW2 because Germany was dissatisfied with the harsh penalties imposed upon the country by the treaty. The above claim that Versailles 'was a direct cause of WW2' is American college mythology.
How did the treaty Versailles lead to World War 2?
The treaty was very harsh, particularly on the German people & economy. The Great Depression had a great effect on the Germans....Hyper Inflation led to great poverty. (People took their money to market in a wheelbarrow & took home their goods in a wallet !) This led to the rise of German Nationalism & the popularity of the Nazi party. The Versailles Treaty did not bring about WW2 in itself, but might well be seen as a contributory factor.
